Keg at Old Brewery Tavern. Pale gold thin white head. Artificial pear aroma. Oh bot this is rubbish. It makes Babycham look accomplished. Medium sweet but does not make me want to throw up. Its not awful but too fizzy and thin better than I expected

Bottle. Pours clear, light yellow with mild fizz. Semi-sickly aplle sweets in the nose. Lightly sweet with faint apples and mild tartness. Light in body with fizzy carbonation. The finish dries lightly with soft fizz and some syrupy apples. Not great.

Blackthorn Cider (6.0% Export Version) from Showerings Cider Mill
15 years ago
4.1/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 4 Flavor 3 Texture 6 Overall 3.5
Single 33 cl bottle, $1.29 @ Binnys. Pours with a singular gushy fizz sound I’m hearing when I have a bottled cider. Clear apple juice color, just a few trickles of bubbles. Smell is a mix of sweet and tart apple, but some sugar and preservative are in the nose as well. Taste is, well, just what it says. Fermented apple juice with carbonated water, Some notes of bleach. Meant to be slammed at a bar, not intended for contemplation.

Blackthorn Dry Cider from Showerings Cider Mill

On tap at the Rustic Vine, Bristol 13/09/10. This was the version that replaced the 4.7% sweetened one that was so unpleasant it led to Blackthorn being removed from dozens of pubs in the Bristol area, and a campaign by disappointed drinkers. If this is an improved cider, then that one must have been truly awful.........Orange and very fizzy. Mushy, still sweetish apple pulp, with not much character and a sugary finish. I’m now mounting my own boycott of this product.
